Who really cares???

I don't know about you, but I couldn't care less about Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt's married life! Apparently, the relationship of these two mega-superstars of untold Hollyweird fame has hit the rocks and as far as the media world is concerned, modern-American life as we know it might as well be over!

Now, I have nothing against either of these two individuals and, in fact, enjoy their acting. But the frenzy surrounding their "supposed" marital conflicts is absolutely out-of-hand and does nothing but minimalize and side-line the actual news of the day; like, maybe, over 150,000 people dead in southeast Asia, the upcoming elections in Iraq and the service and sacrifice of our men and women in the middle-east and around the world.

I understand the appeal of retreating from the "real world," complete with suicide bombings and tidal waves, into the fluffy world of entertainment and the fantasy lives of celebrities, but this is bordering on absurd.

Consider this; how much time do Brad or Jen spend reading, watching and obsessing about YOUR love life (or lack there of)? Nada. Why then do we waste precious hours of our lives doing just that? It just doesn't make sense.
